Agreed on Tolstoy. I would slow down on the therapy aside, because it is the same case. A person can be handed an accurate summary of their own life and nothing happens. I did that more than once early on, and watched a correct account of someone slide straight off them. What changed anything was slower and had another person's attention in it. The weather report fails for the storm in a book and for the one in a life, and I expect people will find that out in the same order.
As accountants are already seeing dreadful errors made by AI when people are using them for their tax returns I think we need to be more circumspect about both its capabilities and applications. An accountant I know recently saw just such an example and said "this is going to keep us very busy for the next 10 to 15 years".
"It may be that the people currently practicing those things are the ones who lose out but that the overall output is different and better."
You are assuming it will be better because...? and better than what?
Based on the error I saw AI had made when I asked it to do a simple math calculation , how will how will you or anyone know that the output in this 'arena' not be similarly WRONG?

I’d rather hear you read Wordsworth.

Brilliant analogy about weather report and experiencing a thunderstorm. I hope you are right about AI.
Thank you for sharing the interview.
